Hello,
I started a Stakeholder Pension with Aviva not long after I started my Ltd company up when I moved to contracting. As I pay myself £6k per year salary with the rest coming from dividends, I was told that I can only pay 100% of my salary into this Stakeholder Pension, so this is what I do.
I have since transferred old Company Pensions from my permie days over to a new Hargreaves Lansdown SIPP which I love as I get to monitor it whenever I like, although they are just sitting there currently. Am I allowed to top this up with my own cash (and get the 20% relief), as I was told that I wasn't allowed to as 100% of salary already goes to Stakeholder ? If so then I would like to. Secondly, if the answer to the last question is yes, if I wanted to transfer the Stakeholder into the HL SIPP, could I still pay 100% LTD salary to SIPP + make extra personal contributions to it also ?
Quite keen to get my pension moving up, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
